LAYLA

Using my apron to wipe my hands, I observed the dough rising in the stone oven.

I smiled as the aroma of roasted meat and baked bread filled the kitchen.

While the other maids were kneading dough, chopping vegetables and stirring pots I noticed that some of them were giggling at something.

I shook my head and gave a small smile .

I felt at home here even though I was the Luna.

Perhaps it was because I enjoyed its normalcy, the sensation of accomplishing a straightforward simple task.

But as soon as I looked out the window, my peaceful moment was destroyed and my heart sank immediately

At first I wasn't really sure of what I was seeing and I blinked rapidly.

Young women in a long line were dragged into the courtyard. Their faces were bruised, their wrists were bound and their clothing was ripped.

A few of them hobbled, while others were hardly conscious, their heads drooping like ragged dolls.

I felt uneasy and I swallowed hard.

I knew what I was seeing, I knew what this is.

  • Owned By The Rogue Alpha    As crazy as ever

    DEL MORINO I walked to the dungeon hoping that before she dies, guilt, regret maybe would make her say the truth and help us get Drake.She was still screaming, no longer begging like she almost did as the guards dragged her to the dungeon and she continued to struggle with them, she even tried to bit one of them.She was a mad dog.The dungeons' chilly air which was heavy with moisture and the smell of rusted iron stuck to my body. The room feels tighter and smaller because of the sharp shadows created by the flickering torches on the stone walls. This was just the perfect place for the discussion as I couldn't go to the Solitude Chambers.Celeste's fragile wrists were shackled to the chair in the middle of the room and the chains shook as she moved against them, her hair was disheveled and her eyes wide.Despite the fact that every muscle in my body ached from the pain and my chest was tightening with anger,I watched her in silence breathing slowly. My jaw clenched and my hands ba

  • Owned By The Rogue Alpha    An Alpha's Grief

    DEL MORINO I stood rooted to the spot as the doctors came and took his body away. I still couldn't believe it, it felt like a nightmare that I didn't want but it still stayed.My heartache and I thought of Layla too. If she would leave me just the way Adrian had. We both had our differences and didn't see eye to eye on most cases but I didn't want him to die.For the first time I felt so weak and the position of Alpha became too heavy for me.When they were all gone and the door closed. My brothers who had come one by one each expressed their condolences in their own unique way, some by taking a firm hold on my shoulder and others by nodding stiffly. They had all felt the blow and had sent words to other packs to beware of Drake and also a bounty had been paid on him.“We’ll make that fool suffer for this.” Finn said, his voice was hardly audible above a whisper and his eyes were dark with anger. Finn had been the last to leave.I knew how difficult my brothers were when they got an

    DEL MORINO I got the news that I was waiting for the next day and I was so happy that I couldn't wait to share it with my brothers and Adrian too.“So Adrian will be able to recover fully now.” Finn said his voice filled with hope.Doctor Nate had told me this just last night. A little pup had died and her blood would be used for Adrian, once it gets into his blood stream it could flush every toxins that Drake had infused in him during the fight.I couldn’t wait to see his face when I told him. Couldn't wait to see him happy again and I know that this was going to work even though it was a rare case.Adrian was always the first one to believe in me, even when I couldn’t see it in myself. It was time for me to eventually give him something to be proud of.I pushed open the door to his ward, my heartbeat quickening. It was quiet. Too quiet. A deep, unsettling silence that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.“ Adrian? ” I called out loudly, stepping into the room. My heart

  • Owned By The Rogue Alpha    You'll be fine

    DEL MORINO The room felt suffocating as I sat next to Adrian’s bed. His breathing was steady now, a little less shallow than it had been before. The machines beeped loudly vo, nearly like they were lullabying him into some false sense of peace. But I knew better. He wasn’t awake. And perhaps he wouldn’t be for a long time.I had been sitting there for hours, just staring at him. My mind was a mess, and my feelings were worse. I had to talk to him. I need to. But there was a storm inside me something I couldn’t ignore any longer. I left after sometime and came back. I had gone to check up on Layla and also gave instructions to the guards to tighten the borders and also search for Drake.Maybe now Adrian might be awake and we would continue with our discussion before he fell into unconsciousness. It was the pain, eating at him and his wolf and making him weaker and dragging him into padding out sometimes.The door clicked shut behind me as I stood, my fists gripped at my sides. I had

  • Owned By The Rogue Alpha    A Psycho

    DEL MORINO I was feeling so angry, my jaw was set and the only thing was making sure Celeste's entire family had to pay for what she did.Anger was building inside of me like a storm swirling, twisting and threatening to rip me to pieces. I was still trying to come to terms with what had happened and still trying to understand that Celeste had betrayed us. Betrayed her mate, put up a show when he was wounded, that she had the guts to slam a branch at Layla's stomach. She wanted her to lose her baby and now she has done this , I hope she prepares herself to pay for her crimes.But there she was standing before me, her eyes wide, her face wearing that damned begging expression. “De.’l she said in a low nearly inaudible voice. “You need to understand. I had no intention of any of this happening.” She stared at me briefly before uttering those abominable words.“I love you.”When the words hit me like a wave, I froze. All I should have felt was disgust but I felt nothing. As if everythi
